Most expensive car parts sold on eBay this year

eBay has revealed the most expensive parts and accessories sold on its online automotive marketplace in the UK for the first six months of this year.

Performance engines, carbon fibre parts, high-end performance cars and exclusive number plates dominated the top 10.

First, second and third places on the rundown of biggest buys this year so far belonged to the performance car sector. Coming in first place was an Audi R8 5.2 V10 petrol engine, which was bought for £16,567.

This was followed in second and third place by two sets of Porsche carbon bucket seats, the first pair being for a 911 GT3 at £13,085 and the second being for the smaller Cayman GT4 at £11,962.

At the other end of the automotive spectrum, fourth place was secured by a battery pack for a Tesla Model S at £8,606 – a huge discount over the high costs of a brand-new Tesla battery.

The list also included exclusive vehicle registrations, such as ‘ELON X’ which was bought for £8,606 and ‘DIESEL’ for £8,135.

From Ferrari, the most expensive item wasn’t an engine or carbon fibre body part, but a complete set of tailored luggage for the company’s 512TR. The buyer purchased this for £8,518, placing it sixth overall.

Other interesting parts and accessories include a complete 5.0 litre V8 engine for an L405 Range Rover (£7,884 ), and even a full, incomplete 1965 Ford Mustang project car (£7,450 ).
